Compare Mowers

Prices are the recommended retail prices published by each manufacturer’s Australian site, in AUD, as read on the date shown on each model’s page; dealers set the final price.

A side-by-side reference of each model's stated specifications. MowerFacts doesn’t give opinions: where a published, spec-derived rule can separate machines we mark a Data Pick and show the rule; here, read the values and decide what fits your needs.

Best suited for

What each model is built for, from its duty class and key specs. This is a neutral reference — MowerFacts does not rank one model above another.

  • Bad Boy Mowers Maverick — commercial: daily paid use and high acreage; 54-inch deck; gas powered
  • Bad Boy Mowers 2026 Rambler — prosumer: larger home properties and light acreage; 42-inch deck; gas powered
What’s different? The 5 differences that matter most, from the published figures.
  1. Maverick weighs 456 kg (1,005 lbs); 2026 Rambler weighs 287 kg (633 lbs), a 169 kg difference. Operating weight bears on trailer payload, ramps and soft turf. On its own it says nothing about build quality. What Maverick's weight means for a trailer ›
  2. Maverick has a published top speed of 9 mph; 2026 Rambler has a published top speed of 6 mph, a 3 mph difference. Top speed is the maker's maximum in transport. Mowing speed is lower and depends on grass, terrain and the deck.
  3. Maverick has a 1,372 mm (54 in) deck; 2026 Rambler has a 1,067 mm (42 in) deck, a 305 mm difference. Deck width sets how much grass each pass covers. Mowing time also depends on ground speed, turns and obstacles, so a wider deck alone does not fix the job's length. Time both decks on your own lawn ›
  4. Maverick has a 7 Gauge / 4.5mm deck; 2026 Rambler has a 7 Gauge/4.55mm deck.
  5. Maverick holds 29.5 L (7.8 gal) of fuel; 2026 Rambler holds 22.7 L (6 gal) of fuel, a 6.8 L difference. Tank size bounds how long a machine runs between stops. Consumption varies with engine, load and speed, so hours per tank are not fixed.
